The Jim Acosta Show

While Jim is off, we’re picking some of our favorite shows to re-air.
Today it’s tennis legend Martina Navratilova, who defected from communist Czechoslovakia in 1975 — and says Trump's America is showing every sign of the totalitarian regime she escaped. Navratilova is currently appearing in a new Netflix documentary titled, Chris & Martina: The Final Set, which premieres globally on Netflix on June 26, 2026.
We also picked our interview with Academy Award-nominated actress Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), of Blackfeet and Nez Perce heritage, whose peoples survived a deliberate campaign of genocide. Gladstone joined Jim to discuss her powerful PBS documentary "Bring Them Home."

While Jim is out this week, we are re-airing some of our favorite guests, tonight it’s Retired Lieutenant General Mark Hertling who joined Jim Acosta for a wide-open conversation about what's really happening in the Iran war — and what the Trump administration refuses to say out loud. Hertling also raises the alarm about Russia allegedly providing Iran with intelligence to target American warships and assets in the region. Plus: the FBI and DHS weakened at exactly the moment the US faces its highest domestic terror risk in years.Plus, Ruth Ben Ghiat joins to discuss Trump's incessant fraud claims, despite never offering or finding any evidence of election fraud.
